A friend and I stayed for 3 nights in Raudot room. It had everything we needed, and is located a close walk to all the places we wanted to see in the old town. It's just a short drive to Montmorency Falls and Ile d'Orleans, worth the drive. The breakfast is a set plate with delicious croissants and crepes with a nice fruit bowl and a bit of cheeses, with tea or coffee. The owner was helpful and we enjoyed the quirky sense of humour and banter. The parking was a block away and reasonable. Be aware that there are stairs to the rooms on the second and third floor (we were on the third and are both in our mid-60s) which we knew about in advance and had no trouble with at all, but I could see it being an issue for some. Next trip I would look to stay here again.

L'Intendant is a charming small B&B. The rooms are clean and comfortable, and while the breakfast is the same every day, it is quite enjoyable. The B&B has three levels, but there is no elevator, so be cautious if you have mobility issues.

The location was excellent for exploring the area. Breakfast was delicious every day and real maple syrup and homemade jam were appreciated! Gerald offered assistance when needed and his dry sense of humour amusing) There was no kettle in the room if you wish to make coffee or tea. We would recommend this establishment and would stay here again.

We recently stayed at L'Intendant as a family of four. Overall, we had a comfortable stay, but there are a few things future guests should know. **Pros:** * The room was spacious and comfortably accommodated all four of us. * The room and bathroom were clean. * The bathroom and room were well-equipped with complete amenities. * The location is convenient for exploring Quebec City's attractions. **Cons:** * Our room was on the third floor, and there is no elevator, so carrying luggage up and down the stairs was quite difficult, especially for anyone traveling with seniors or heavy bags. * Breakfast was included, but it was disappointing. On the first morning, my husband found a hair on his fruit plate, which affected our experience. * On our second morning, we had to leave very early to drive back home. We asked if it would be possible to receive our included breakfast as a simple takeaway since it only consisted of croissants, fruit, cheese, juice, and coffee. Unfortunately, our request was not accommodated, even though breakfast was included in our booking. * During breakfast, the owner jokingly took our phone and commented that using a phone during meals is unhealthy. We understand that no harm was intended, but it felt awkward and made us uncomfortable. * Parking is not free, and the parking area is located behind the building, requiring guests to drive around to access it.

The property was built in 1925 and may have originally been an apartment building. My unit was a 2 bedroom apartment that had been very tastefully updated without loosing the originality of the building, very quiet and the bed was very comfortable. It was located 1 1/2 blocks from the ViaRail station and within walking distance of many areas of interest. If I were ever able to return to Old Quebec City, I would definitely want to stay here again.

Our host waited for us past the normal check in time. He helped book the Hop On Hop Off bus, gave us a map of where to catch it and where all the sites we wanted to see were located. Breakfast is included and the breakfast was delicious. Our time there wonderful. Stay here! So convenient to everything! Great host! No elevator, so be prepared for stairs. It was a 2 bedroom apartment (the queen beds have quilts that are not too frou frou but homey) that lived up to what was written. Great way to travel. Thanks again for a great stay. If I'm back in Quebec, I'll be staying there again.

Suggest reading other reviews before booking. The hotel is very convenient for the rail station and 10 minutes walk to Upper Quebec centre; 15 mins to Place Royale. It is definitely a "one-off" as hotels go these days. A bit like walking into a 1960s house with some furniture from the 1950s. No lift and steep stairs. Can't comment on what each room is like - we had the king bedroom. The bed was comfortable, sheets clean and a number of towels provided. There was a double jacuzzi style tub on a podium but we only used the shower above (very good). The toilet is like a cupboard built into the room (but no roof). Large TV provided but didn't use. No daily cleaning. Kettle and cups provided when requested. Breakfast was very good, though the same each day. The manager is also a one-off character. I can see why some folk felt a little uneasy or threatened but he came across to us as someone who likes to have some fun (on his terms) with guests. We went along with it got to enjoy our interactions and found him helpful. He has a good knowledge of old Quebec and wanted to share this with us. So if you are looking for the usual modern hotel, don't think this is for you but if you are looking for a reasonably priced place for somewhere to put your head down for a night or two, then it is worth considering

Gerard was accommodating, we appreciate him waiting for us until 10:30pm because the train was delayed. We really enjoyed the breakfast he prepared. We liked the music he plays to create good vibes, and his dry sense of humour. The room will give you a glimpse of what room looks like in the past. The room was not perfect if you’re looking for a fancy room but it is neat, tidy and will give you a good sleep. Thank you Gerard 🤗
